Chapter 207

“What a strange individual!”

Oliver muttered internally. His head felt like it was swelling and ached mildly.

His body had felt exceptionally refreshing and at ease since he obtained the Book of Immortality’s aura. Being in such a sublime physical state meant he never experienced fever or dizziness, let alone a headache.

“What’s happening to me?”

His head weighed a ton, and the prickling pain was as if he was having a hangover.

Oliver rubbed his temples and circulated the Book of Immortality’s aura around his mind again. The feeling was like cold water flowing through him instantly, and he resumed his state of comfort.

The sense that something was off dawned upon him right then. “Could it be…

He lowered his gaze toward the crystal. “Does the problem lie with this?”

No wonder things felt strange. Everything that had occurred, such as the hallucinations appearing in his lucid mind, the fog inside the crystal suddenly becoming transparent, and the hangover-like sensation akin to pin-pricks, was the crystal’s doing.

“What does… the man look like?” Oliver looked up abruptly and directed his question at Frederick, who was caught off guard and had a delayed reaction.

“Who? Do you mean Howard, the priest?”

Oliver nodded.

Frederick cocked his head. “He looks to be in his thirties or forties. How should I put it? While he isn’t handsome, he’s certainly not bad-looking. He also possesses an impeccable aura like that of a divine being…”

“Besides, I felt as if he could see through my mind when I looked into his eyes…” He recalled and paused briefly before he pointed it out.
